You may also like: 1984.
I read it when I was younger. I did not like it nearly as much as Animal

AF is written to be an allegory of the evolution of communism in Russia.
But it is astonishing how many of the characters in it can represent the players in a Western system
1984 is a vision of unchecked capitalism. It seems describe today's world very closely.
Both tell the tale of losing one's rights by following orders blindly and putting faith into one institution.
Along the same lines, Huxley's "Brave New World".

I would be more like the Donkey. But unlike the Donkey, I read. :)
The donkey is like the incredibly brilliant but overwhelmingly depressed robot in The Hithicker's Guide to the Galaxy.
